A huge thank you to our speakers, community organisations and frontline services who shared their expertise and experiences.

Recently, we held a Stakeholders’ Validation and Review Meeting on Local Giving, bringing together practitioners, partners, and youth-led organisations to strengthen the draft report with deeper insights and practical recommendations. Participants reviewed the research findings, shared lived experiences, identified gaps, and offered clearer strategies for documenting local giving, building trust, improving visibility, and enhancing community-led development efforts. #LocalGiving #Philanthropy #YouthHubAfrica

Blimey! Thats incredible.

📍Looking back on the #PhilanthropyWeek2025 After-Action Review, it was inspiring to be part of a conversation about where the movement goes next. 🌱💡 Big thanks to @ngoforum , @CivLegacy_F and all the partners who are keeping the spirit of local giving alive and strong. We’re excited to carry these ideas forward and keep building a future where communities lead the way. 🤝✨ #LocalGiving #CommunityImpact #Localization

The Courage to Carry Hope Her father was always taking in new students, especially those who had been recently orphaned. “On any given day, I’d come home from school and find a new child at home,” @GladysBdrenda recalls. “My father looked after so many and helped pay their school fees.” Three years ago, Brenda found herself unknowingly walking in his footsteps. Having started out as a school career counselor, she enjoyed guiding students. But one day, during a field trip, she began to wonder: Was this the real need for the young people she met? To find answers, she convened several focus group discussions with students. What she heard shifted her course. Out of those responses, @Rebuildscholars was born. Today, the organization runs an education fund that currently supports 15 girls to stay in school. Yet their work is not limited to paying fees. Brenda and her team often have to sit down with parents to negotiate, to plead, and sometimes to protect. She recounted a moment when they rescued a girl from early marriage—a story that embodies the heart of their mission. Sustaining this work is no small feat. They raise resources from friends, churches, private companies, and anyone willing to give. “It’s tough but fulfilling,” Brenda tells me, with a gentle chuckle. I ask her, “What keeps you going?” “Giving hope,” she answers without hesitation. “Amuno in Ateso.” Then she smiles, adding softly, “That word even carries heavier meaning when said in my language.” Amuno. Hope. My heart goes out to Brenda—and to all who wake up every day to be conveyors of Amuno. #WalkTalkConnect #Amuno #HopeInAction #LocalGiving

"We want to use local money to solve local problems." A powerful message from Grace Maingi of the Kenya Community Development Foundation at our session on Building Endowments. Endowments are a strategic pathway to sustainability, giving organizations the freedom to fund projects they're passionate about. #PhilanthropyWeek2025 #Endowments #LocalGiving

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of joining the ongoing #PhilanthropyWeek an annual celebration that brings together passionate individuals and organizations that believe in the power of local giving to drive sustainable change, a movement led by @ngoforum and @CivsourceAfrica This gathering is a space to honour those who make everyday sacrifices the givers, the volunteers, the dreamers and doers who pour into their communities not for recognition, but because they care. At @HummingbirdUg , our work is powered by local philanthropy in all its forms not just financial donations, but the precious gift of time, skills, networks, and shared values. From the medical volunteers who travel miles to offer care in remote districts… To the teachers who lend their voices in our health education drives… To the community leaders who open their homes and hearts to support our outreach missions… To the young people who choose service over comfort we see you and honour you. Our impact across underprivileged communities in Uganda be it through sexual and reproductive health awareness, disability-inclusive health outreaches, or community-led period poverty campaigns has only been made possible because local people believed in a local cause. #PhilanthropyWeek is a reminder that true giving doesn’t always wear a suit or come from a cheque book sometimes it wears gumboots, carries a first aid kit, and shows up with a loudspeaker and a loud heart. We celebrate all who have walked this journey with us. You are the reason one more mother survives childbirth, one more girl stays in school, and one more person with a disability receives dignified healthcare. Let’s continue to reimagine philanthropy not as something distant or elite, but as something rooted, accessible, and ours. #PhilanthropyWeek2025 #LocalGiving #HummingbirdFoundation #HealthForAll #YouthInPhilanthropy #LeaveNoOneBehind
